Not six, as reported earlier, but as many as 12 or 13 players from five different Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises with "unverified" allegations against them have been named in the sealed Justice Mukul Mudgal report on corruption in the IPL, The Indian Express reported on Thursday.

The players reportedly belong to Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals and three other franchises. "The three-member panel, headed by retired Punjab and Haryana HC chief justice Mukul Mudgal, categorised the allegations made by witnesses it examined as 'unverified', and submitted them to the court in a sealed cover," the newspaper said.

"Besides the dozen-odd players from three teams, the confidential report has also listed allegations against at least three IPL office bearers, it is learnt ... the report is also believed to contain allegations - based on recorded testimonies of witnesses - against owners of teams other than CSK and RR," The Indian Express further reported.

"These are top office-bearers who have been closely involved in the organisation of the IPL for several years," the newspaper quoted a source familiar with the developments.

The next date of hearing in the Supreme Court is April 16, which is when IPL 7 begins as well with its first phase in the UAE.
